Ok so I need some constructive criticism on the new site it is not completely transferred over but there is enough up for you to get a general idea of what it is going to look like...Specifically I need a few questions answered... 1. What do you think about the black text on white background opposed to the white text on a black background? 2. Which side should the sidebar be on? The left or right? And if you have anything else you would like to add by all means speak up [...]

Actually I wouldn't say I'm twisted but definitely sick....So please forgive my short absence while my body defends itself against whatever virus I picked up. Being sick sucks x 10 In the mean time listen to this breathtakingly beautiful song off the new Cinematic Orchestra's new album, Ma Fleur mp3: To Build a Home - Cinematic Orchestra Ma Fleur 2007 - Get it Share [...]

Not much time to talk today, but I needed to get this track up. I'm not too familiar with the Brit-based electronic jazz ensemble The Cinematic Orchestra , but they just released their fourth full length LP, Ma Fleur , earlier this month. The album's opener is an absolute stunner and requires your absolute and undivided attention. The Cinematic Orchestra - To Build A Home The track's guided by soft piano keys and a harrowing vocal performance by guest Patrick Watson. The soft and simple lilting [...]
Muziek waar je op een zondagochtend mee wakker wil worden. Helaas isde zondagmorgen al voorbij, maar dat neemt niet weg dat ik je kennis willaten maken met deze geweldige muziek. Dit is muziek in haar reinste vorm- dat als je je ogen sluit de mooiste dingen ziet. Een beetje als het plaatjehierboven dus. Ja, zelfs in de cover van dit geweldige album kun je einde-loos verdwalen! Ik heb het over The...

Four years after last playing the sprawling labyrinth of the Barbican and The Cinematic Orchestra return to promote their new long player "Ma Fleur". In 2003 they performed a specially commissioned soundtrack to Dziga Vertov's ground breaking film " Man With A Movie Camera ". My girlfriend at the time punctured some of highbrow reverence during an interval dash to the bar, an overexcited fan could contain himself no more and had to tell her how it was " breathtaking, absolutely magical "... the poor soul received the sullen reply of " I was so [...]

"it would just be a waste of time" ============================== ============================== ===== glisten: walkie talkie Time for my weekly round-up of Joe's Pub podcasty-type interviews; those of you somewhat in the dark as to what this is all about are welcome to get all the details in the first of these posts here . It was a good Friday and I had a nice chat with all the folks involved. David Brown of Brazzaville [...]

"To Build A Home (Feat. Patrick Watson)" I'm a sucker for cinematics. So, at least for me, the aptly titled Cinematic Orchestra can't possibly go wrong. This track, featuring Patrick Watson, is a beautifully drawn out soundscape, scoring the precious moments between the complexities of day-to-day life and the simple things we take for granted. Simplicity is also key to the song. "This is a place where I don't feel alone/This is a [...]
Big week of new music in store. Advanced apologies as the job has gotten the best of me over the last few weeks. But in that time I've received a superfluity of sickness, some truly unreal gems, with the biggest, baddest and most exciting the newest record from The Cinematic Orchestra , Ma Fleur, which is scheduled to land stateside over the summer. Longtime readers know how much SK loves it some Cinematic sounds and after five years, Jason Swinscoe - dropping the J. he formerly went by - delivers another stellar LP of [...]

1. Pedro the Lion - Indian Summer - I'm actually surprised I never got too deep into Pedro the Lion, but gems like this one help me understand why a lot of people I know are koo-koo for Pedro-Puffs. This one belongs on a mixtape. Make it happen, people. [from Control | buy ] 2. The Cinematic Orchestra - To Build a Home - This sounds like Coldplay's Chris Martin doing a song for a movie soundtrack. Is that bad in any way? Not a chance. [from [...]

all changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another. ~anatole france~ to build a home :: cinematic orchestra [ma fleur 2007] here with me :: oddway [away from the everyday 2007] [...]

The turkey got away. We woke up early Thursday morning in Connecticut to find that it was raining and freezing cold outside. The majority of our group still planned to run the 5-mile Manchester Road Race. "Good luck," I told them as I packed my running shoes back into my bag and grabbed a tall mimosa to wash down my breakfast. After the race, the runners stood in the foyer, soaking wet and shaking to the toes. Calmly, I climbed off the couch and out from under my blanket, grabbed my argyle sweater and got ready for [...]

its good to start the week off right with something lush to put you into the right daydream mode. this beautiful downtempo live performance of cinematic orchestra may do just that. densely layered with piano & keyboards, double bass, violin, cello, vibraphone, saxophone, turntables and sampling effects; this is dark modern jazz in the highest form possible. cinematic orchestra // live june 24 2001 dumaurier jazz festival // performance works, vancouver, bc kalima [...]
here's three calming artists to listen to on a quiet weekend afternoon. what exactly is a cinematic orchestra? a 6 piece collaboration fueled to share in the elegance and passion of film-noir, improvisational jazz/funk fusion, downbeat, ambient electronica all created into an orchestral, atmospheric soundtrack. while there will never be another davis or coltrane, its nice to take a liking onto
Back to the Jockey Slut Disco Pogo series. This one's number 9 from July 2003. Three whole years ago. On the front of the mag (as you can see â€" along with my Tube map jigsaw) were the Neptunes. Inside we were introduced to little-known producer Danger Mouse (then part of DM & Jemini), said hello to new NYC band !!!, saw Tiga's fists, and puzzled over trip-hop wierdo Tricky.
